Inaugural National Itch Summit
Bringing the Itch Community Together
The National Itch Summit, presented by the National Itch Foundation, will bring together the broader itch community—including clinicians across specialties, researchers, industry leaders, patients and patient advocates—for two days focused exclusively on advancing the understanding and care of chronic itch.
By bringing these perspectives together, the inaugural Summit will foster scientific exchange, multidisciplinary discussion and collaboration around emerging research, evolving approaches to treatment and important unmet needs across the field.
Why Now Is the Time for an Itch-Focused Summit
The science of itch continues to evolve, creating new opportunities to deepen our understanding of its complex mechanisms, address unmet needs and improve care for people living with chronic itch.
Hear why now is the time to bring the itch community together for a dedicated scientific meeting—and what the inaugural National Itch Summit can contribute to the future of the field.

Advancing Itch Research and Patient Care
Chronic itch spans diseases, patient populations and medical specialties. Advancing the field requires collaboration not only across dermatology, allergy and immunology, neurology and other areas of medicine, but also among clinicians, researchers, industry and the patients whose experiences help inform the conversation.
The National Itch Summit creates a dedicated forum for these perspectives to come together—to exchange research and clinical insights, explore emerging therapeutic approaches, address patient needs and examine the challenges that remain in understanding and treating chronic itch.
